❛ ♡ for one muse to wake the other with breakfast in bed ❜ ━━ @antonindoloxv .
𝚃𝙷𝙴 𝙵𝙸𝚁𝚂𝚃 𝚃𝙷𝙸𝙽𝙶 𝙷𝙴 𝙽𝙾𝚃𝙸𝙲𝙴𝙳 𝚄𝙿𝙾𝙽 awakening was the fact that he was not in his own room ━━━━━━ vision still addled by sleep took a few seconds to realise that while not in his own house, the room he was in was no less familiar. The next thing was the body next to his ; big and much stronger than his own, and yet Severus felt nothing but serenity rush through him. Mind no matter how sleepy aware that with Antonin he was safe ━━━━ no matter where, no matter how, if he was with Dolohov he would be fine. Slowly, much slower than on a normal day, Snape allowed himself to embrace wakefulness ; despite imagining that he'd enjoy spending a lazy morning with his lover in bed, he also knew he'd feel guilty if he broke his routine. Though perhaps here, he had a newer one ━━━━━━━━ after all, he was about to rise up to make breakfast, something he hardly ever did for himself.
As a spy of his caliber would, Severus untangled himself from his lover's arms and blankets without much noise or movement ; allowing Antonin to remain asleep for a little longer. Making his way to the russian's kitchen, Severus had his mother in mind and so he decided to share some of his favourite foods with Antonin ━━━━━━ feeling rather light and emotional in the chilly winter morning. The mechanics of getting started on the breakfast came easily enough ; filling up the kettle with water, setting it aside to boil, summoning the ingredients from his own pantry onto the counter and getting on with the making of the soy milk, preparing the fillings for the steammed buns and frying the yóutiáo.
Severus opted for a mix of sweet and savoury, stuffing some of the buns with ground pork, eggs and vegetables, and others with vanilla custard, honey and sugar. As a child, his mother hardly had the money to indulge him in a healthy breakfast, but she often made him dòujiāng yóutiáo ━━━━━━━━ soy milk with fried dough sticks ━━━━━━━━ and he held a fondness for this dish ever since. It reminded him of home, of comfort, especially when he heated up the milk ; sharing this side of him with Antonin was another step into a growing relationship. Another vulnerability he was giving the other man, trusting him not to use it against him. Once everything was done, Severus put everything on a tray, his mug of jasmine tea steaming as well as Anotnin's coffee ━━━━━━━━ he had prepared quite a lot of food, but the other man did eat more than him, so he figured it would be okay.
Letting the tray levitate behind him, Severus went back to the room, now with the task of getting his big russian boyfriend to get up. ❛ Rise and shine, darling... ❜ he whispered in the man's ear, hands making their way into Antonin's hair ; slowly waking the other man, and hoping the smell of food would be another incentive. ❛ I made breakfast. ❜
( @antonindoloxv ) asked : ❝ see? i’m not just a pretty face. ❞ — Antonin & Severus
Severus chuckled softly, leaning over to press his lips to the man's cheek in response to those words. He'd always known Antonin was a sharp one, for all that the other had been a few years ahead of him back during their own Hogwarts days. They'd not had much interaction until Severus joined the Dark Lord however, which was when he'd truly come to appreciate the man's wit, power an inventiveness. That they get to share this life now in such a manner is more than he could ever have allowed himself to imagine.
"I never doubted." He replied playfully, a mannerism his students would no doubt be exceedingly shocked to know he could display. It was a pity that none of those children had the spark that he looked for during his teaching, the potential to become truly great in his field. Should he find one, Severus had long since decided that student would become his apprentice… As things were, Hadrian and Draco showed the most promise, but their true passions lay elsewhere, more the pity.
"I appreciate you helping me with this, Antonin." He hummed, deciding to lay down the notebook and his quill for the time being. He'd been working on the fine-tuning of that ritual for what was probably several days in a row now, and Antonin's help on the runes section of it had finally gotten him unstuck, but the project could wait one evening, could it not?
Instead he rose from his seat and wrapped his arms around his lover to press another kiss to those lips, having to lean up slightly due to Antonin's bloody tall stature.
"It's come to my attention that I've been rather preoccupied with the project and have been neglecting you, Antonin. Shall we rectify that~?"

Never say to a werewolf make yourself pretty if you don’t want him show up at a death eater meeting. Sure he was invited but they expected the shabby looking werewolf, with long greasy hair and well looking like he slept in a dumbster for a month.
No he came there, his hair shaved,not entirely but still shorter than it used to be, his bear almost shaved. He would never shave it completely, he looked like a freaking old lady without it. Some pants, a dress shirt and a vest. Not sure how he found these clothes in his size but nobody asked questions.
He opened the door with almost a bang, dramatic entrace getting even better with the lightning. “Sorry I’m late.”
@antonindoloxv answered:
Well this wasn’t his dorm room he realized, which would also explain a lot of things like why it didn’t smell of Chinese take out or the axe bodyspray his roommate tended to overuse. Unless his roommate had a girl over but as he looked closer, even in his hazy drunken brain, he saw that was not the case. Their room was clean enough but this was most definitely a different room and it was just very female. Huh.
“I got kicked out.” He answered with a small shrug but didn’t move from where he stood like an idiot. He had been in his Yaxley’s room hanging out, drinking with the rest of the boys and playing video games until they all got kicked out for being too loud on a weekday and headed back to their own dorm rooms. But it would seem Antonin had taken a wrong turn somewhere or missed his own door. “Sorry I woke you?”
When she’d heard the door open, she’d automatically assumed it was Marlene, who had forgotten her keys again, and was probably going to bring home some bloke she met at the pub later. The smell of alcohol had, in her mind, confirmed her suspicions, until she realized Marlene had texted over an hour ago, letting her know she wouldn’t be coming home that night.
And so here she was, staring at the man who’d entered her room, trying to judge if he was a threat or if this was some mistake. She’d like to hope it was an accident, but considering what time it was, and that she was alone, she didn’t have the luxury.
“Mate, you smell like you’ve had a bit to drink, yeah. Where’s your dorm, then?”

Things could have gone worse.
The definitely could have gone worse.
New Years at the Lestrange Manor was like a nightmare for Finch. He tried to stay as close to Antonin as possible, but simply being back in such a hellish place did a number on the young man. He did all that he could to avoid Rabastan, and did a fairly good job until the end of the night came and it was time to say their goodbyes.
Finch could feel himself breaking again as the man verbally harassed him before Antonin joined them (never touching him; he had learned that lesson). The change was subtle and could easily have been mistaken as Finch being tired.
He crashed on the floor at the foot of Antonin’s bed rather than the nice little nest that had been growing by the fireplace. He didn’t wake up at his normal time. Usually by the time Antonin woke up, Finch was kneeling at his bedside. Instead, the man found him curled into a tiny ball in the same spot he fell asleep at, a decent distance from his comfy bed.

He bared his teeth at him and moved to crowd up in his personal space. All 6′4 of him and stared down at the boy with the blankest face he could muster and burning eyes. “And why should I not tell him? You’re not especially doing a good job, Malfoy. You’re just like your father.” he sneered the last part out. If that didn’t get him to work harder, then there was absolutely no hope for the boy.
Draco managed a couple steps back, wanting to keep space between himself and the other wizard. He’d learned he didn’t quite like being around most Death Eaters, despite being related to a good few. Despite having the mark burned on the inside of his forearm. It was meant to be a way to make up for his family’s failure but... well he wasn’t doing very good himself. Still, he tried to keep his face just as even as Antonin’s, though his brows furrowed together slightly. Fear showing despite his best effort.
“I can do better,” he said firmly. He wasn’t his father. Despite growing up looking up to the man... Draco didn’t want to follow in his footsteps. “I will do better. I’m not my father.”
“ No...it’s nae ye.” he muttered and waved his hand absentmindedly. “ Ah just...” he looked down, feeling his stomach flip as he heard the others harsh words. He glared at him.
“ Ah’m nae tryin’--” he paused and let the other man finish his ranting before looking grim and crossed his arms over his chest.
“ Ah had an encounter wit Greyback!” he finally snapped over the other’s voice. “ Nae that ye care, ye twat!”
